Playboy Magazine 1995 RUSSIA Premier Issue #1 Sealed withMedallion Very Rare

  

Ask questions and request pictures before purchasing please. The item in question is a packaged first issue of Playboy magazine for the Russian market, dated from the year 1995. As observed, it remains sealed in its original plastic wrapping, which has helped in preserving its condition. The magazine features the iconic Playboy bunny logo prominently in gold against a black backdrop, a design choice that aligns with the brand's luxurious and playful image.

Accompanying the magazine is a medallion. The inclusion of such a medallion makes it a very rare item as it was a gift to subscribers of this inaugural Russian edition.

It appears to be a pinnable medallion. This probably the last one of its kind. Not many subscribers passed up on opening their first issue, especially when the first one was sealed with the gift of a medallion. It is a duplicate of the medillion on the cover which is similar to a coin with Lenin.

The magazine has some discolor on the bind but the seal is intact. The medallion is wrapped inside the magazine sealed plastic.

The medallion is sharp on the "bowtie" corners and is thru the medallion plastic seal. It was like this when I received it as a wedding gift in the mid 90s. It has been in a locked glass case since then.
